Spicketts Battrick Law Practice

Conveyancing/property

13/01/19 - Reviewed by Praseet Poduval

Worked with Sharon Fitzpatrick and Fran Evans at SB's Pontypridd branch for the sale and purchase of my property. I found both to be very professional and helpful. They will definitely be my go to person for future needs.

Following my father's admission to a nursing home last year Sharon Fitzpatrick arranged my Power of Attorney and recent sale of his property. Both were completed speedily. I was kept informed of progress and without any legal jargon.
At a stressful time both Sharon and secretary Fran were very friendly and for this I was most grateful as my head was elsewhere.
I would not hesitate to use again.

Carys Davies dealt with the conveyancing for my recent property purchase. It was the second time I'd used Spicketts Battrick for conveyancing, and I had the pleasure of dealing with Carys on both occasions. She was efficient, professional, easy to contact and did an accurate and speedy job on both house purchases. I will be using them again.

We were buying a property and the seller used these solicitors. They were terrible. They tried to put pressure on us to complete even though all the paperwork was not inplace and they did not responded to our solicitors queries or supplied the correct documentation. It proved to be a very stressful experience for what should have been a very straight forward sale. I would not reccomend using these solicitors if you are buying or selling a property.

Could not be happier with the service received from this practice. Speedy delivery of an efficient and expedited service. Always available via phone and email. Everything was made completely transparent to us. Lisa Lake was fantastic.

If I could give no stars I would.They sent letters to an empty house I was selling even though they had my address,they asked for proof of id when I had visited the office and they had photocopied my passport and bank details,they failed to inform me that the sale had been completed and as far as I am concerned would not recommend them to even my worst enemy.Deal with them at your peril.

I cant find lower star rating than one sonhad to give one star. Friend of mine is selling his property and his buyer has taken this solicitor. Awfully slow, asking questions after 2 months of searches, not answering phone calls, replying emails after days and delaying the whole process. I bought property and it went smoothly and got keys in 8 weeks. I had to go through lots of paperwork but solicitor was well on ball but my friend is even thinking to cancel the sale just this solicitor is giving him headache. When i saw reviews and their reply against each review ,its awful that they copied and pasted same answer to all reviews. Would highly suggest all people in conveyancing matters that please find solicitor with high rating. They might cost more but will be headache free service.

Find another solicitor, constantly leaving messages as can't get to speak to anyone when I call. Sitting on enquiries for a week which is holding up my sale, this could been sorted with one phone call. Poor service

If I could give zero stars I would. Can't keep track of payments made, all receipts are inaccurate. Can't say whether a notice has been served or not, after 4 weeks. Does not respond to emails unless pressured to.

Absolutely appalling - DO NOT USE! These are my buyers' conveyance - in a chain of just 3 properties, where 1 property is empty bbc and 1 is a first time buyer we are still nowhere near exchange after 14 weeks. They will not respond to my conveyance, keep telling my EA they haven't received everything from my side when I know that the same info has been sent 4 times now. They had the cheek to send a snotty email to my EA because they are being chased so much. They didn't check my buyers' mortgage paperwork for ages and when they did, it had an incorrect address - they also failed to order a mining search. My vendor has now put her property back on the market as she's so fed up! We gave them warning that the chain was in danger of collapsing due to them...they don't give a stuff....the SO called conveyance dealing with it all has now gone on holiday!!!! I am so close to just pulling the plug but I'll lose so much money in wasted fees. Hate them for all this stress caused my their inefficient, lazy, incompetent staff. They are a disgrace to the profession and should have their licence pulled.

Painful experience culminating in John Allison sending back my passport six months after I sent it to him. I assumed it was lost in the post so I had to buy another one. He failed to answer my emails requesting payment.

I am using them to sell and buy property. It has taken 3 months already and still no end in sight. I definitely would not recommend them. I'm stressed to breaking points. My buyer is still waiting and that has been over 4 months now. This firm in my opinion is hopeless. Everything is slow with them.

Worst experience trying to purchase a property using Sarah Farrell. Avoid. I left a review on another website immediately after the debacle that was our house purchase and today received an email stating that they wanted the review removed under Section 5 of the Defamation Acr. Honestly, I've never known a firm like it. As well as being appallingly bad, it would appear that they are also bullies. Avoid.

I haven't had a worse experience in my life with a solicitor. I CAN NOT recommend these solicitors

They took TWICE as long to sell the same flat than it took when bought 6 months earlier, both simple no chain, cash buyers. The only difference was the solicitors!

They are unresponsive, did not reply to questions within their own published promised timescales.

I had to do most of the chasing for them, as they seemed incapable of picking up a phone or sending an email, seemed to still be working in the 19th century, sending letters and waiting for a response, never wondering why they hadn't.
